Servo motors squeeze power into a small
package
AKM motors come in seven standard flange sizes of 40 to 188mm, with different flange/pitch circle versions available on request.
Micromech AKM motors provide a high power output for a given frame size The motors also have low inertia rotors for high dynamic performance and they exhibit very low cogging

Stepper Systems just can't get any simpler now, according to Micromech, as the motion and control specialists have introduced socket to stepping with only three components
The AKM has seven flange sizes and a large number of winding options, while optional feedback systems provide maximum flexibility for machine design.
The process even facilitates the delivery of different frame lengths, winding versions, fixing methods, feedback systems and connection methods without increasing lead times.
The motors come in seven standard flange sizes of 40 to 188mm, with different flange/pitch circle versions available on request.
The AKM has over 70 torque sizes ranging from 0.18 to 52.5Nm.
The standard versions of these motors are fitted with two-pole hollow-shaft resolvers or can be fitted with additional feedback systems.
The Smart Feedback Device is an intelligent Danaher Motion feedback system, a high resolution EnDat encoder or a built-in Comcoder, which is an incremental encoder with commutation track.
Retrofitting of these devices is not possible as the length of the motor varies according to the type of feedback.
For safety the winding temperature is monitored and a signal sent by a PTC temperature sensor in the stator winding.
